| I have given Up on this show because it is endless commercials which may be great for Kims finances but way to much to sit through for so little content. You can't get her edited podcast without paying her of course so I switched over to Leo's tech show that you can podcast minus the commericals. She talks constantly about her many other products she sells and her pay as you go web site. Im done wasting 3 hours of time with 30 minutes of show at most. | ||||||

| I absolutely love this show! Kim Komando is fun and entertaining and I learn something every time I listen to her show. She is always giving out good advice and recommending many free downloads that just make running our computers easier. She does not berate her callers and is always extremely helpful. I highly recommend her to anybody that enjoys talk radio especially if they are interested in anything digital related! | ||||||

Also performs great public benefit by expounding how to deal with spyware, malware, and the threats that anyone using the Internet may encounter. Additionally, Kim has the highest respect for our troops and protection of family regarding computer privacy. | ||||||

| When answering caller questions she gives an answer but NEVER lets the caller get the last word on if she answered their question. At the end she terminates the call by a quick few sentences and a quicker "thank you for calling". You never hear the caller again. It's as though she has already hung up on the caller before her last remarks. Her listener volunteer testing of her web site was really only focused on testing her online store and online profit. Reports on problems with her free web site, like SEARCH, were neglected but problems with online purchases were not. Her newsletter subscriptions are pushed to pull advertisement dollars based on number of newsletters sent and are filled with ads. The default is to send you all newsletters. She users her newsletter mailing list to send email to the list about her online store items, like women's fashion items at Christmas and Mothers Day. Yet, she says she won't sell the list to spammers, while becoming one herself. | ||||||

| This would be a much better show if the host were'nt so full of herself and actually learned more about computing than what Bill Gates has to sell. She can be informative, but the self-proclaimed digital goddess misleads people on some very serious topics. | ||||||

| On her most recent show, 10/15/06, I actually heard her tell a lie. A caller had asked about a basic function of Windows XP Pro and she said that "it was very difficult to do" and that she had been unable to make it work. Unfortunately, she tied this in directly, and recomended to the caller that he purchase a product from one of her sponsors that does the same thing that XP Pro does for free. She was so wrong about the ability to use the XP Pro program, it is very easy, even for the non-geek type user, that I can only assume she lied just to promote her sponsor. | ||||||

| The show is sometimes very good, if you can handle the egotism. It would be good if Kim would explain why she hates streaming audio, though, not everyone gets a radio signal for this show at a time they can listen. | ||||||
